Boeing Tour
We toured the Boeing plant which is housed in the largest building in the world (by volume) in Everett, Washington. Our group of 50 saw the assembly plant where 747, 767, 777, and 787 Dreamliners are assembled. Some of the assembly lines are long enough to accommodate 4 planes, with wings attached. It was fascinating to watch the process. Our tour guide clearly enjoyed his job and loved airplanes.
On one assembly line we saw planes for India, China & Ethiopia
The white plane in the back is one of 4 Dreamlifters in the world. We saw two of them; one took off in front of our tour bus. These huge cargo planes transport Dreamliner parts.
